That's true, but unfortunately in reality you don't have any other viable places to distribute your game because the market is already monopolized. If you want to reach the biggest userbase you must release your product in the most popular stores.

What is the best place to release premium android game? Google Play - biggest userbase, integrated payment, integrated with your google account.

I agree with you, thanks to the Podcast Addict case more people will know about google practices. It took very popular app to make it to the mainstream news and i hope the change will be for the better and maybe small developers will also be heard in this discussion.

I wanted to add that i successfully ran game promoting ads on Google Ads and Facebook Ads through the whole March, without any limiting despite having "virus" words in the ad.

Thanks for the info, i changed videos order. You can set the language for the video and screenshots but it somehow displays for everyone.

"where I assume your goal is to kill as many people as possible with a virus" Game goal is the opposite. I can't imagine i can run funds or donate anything, i am a single private person, ndemic creations is a professional company.

I successfully ran game promoting ads at the end of march, without any limiting despite having "virus" words in the ad. 2 weeks later, the game was released and got banned on Google Play one week after the release.
